Norwegian marine tech startup, Orca, introduces its latest update with Remote Access.

This week's update introduces Remote Access, bringing peace of mind to boat owners by allowing them to check their vessel's status from anywhere with an internet connection.

The latest update introduces features like remote monitoring of anchorage, fuel and battery status, location, and real-time sensor data, allowing boaters to monitor their vessel's position and status from the safety of their home.

The move to introduce Remote Access redefines the limits of what a chartplotter can do. This latest update further distinguishes the Orca Core from traditional chartplotters.

Available immediately Orca Core users' boat sensors are now fully accessible through the Orca App at all times and all locations with an internet signal. Users' can check fuel levels, battery status, and other vital parameters, ensuring their boat is in good state and ready for their next adventure.

During the upcoming months, the Remote Access function will evolve to allow users to set alerts to be notified when unexpected events occur. Such alerts will allow Orca users to identify from home whether their boat's battery is depleted, or their boat has moved from the anchor point.

Launched in 2021, Orca is a modern navigation system for sailboats and powerboats. Originally, Orca offered coverage for the Nordics and northern Europe, quickly meeting demands to cover most of Europe, the U.S. and New Zealand, with plans to add complete global coverage in development.

Orca's navigation system consists of the Orca mobile application, Orca Display 2, and recently launched Orca Core 2, offering powerful navigation on the water, with features including instruments and autopilot control via tablets and smartphones. The marine-grade Orca Display 2 delivers incredible brightness and robustness and has been designed for boaters who want to navigate with ease and confidence.

The Orca app is free to download from the Apple AppStore and Google PlayStore. The modern app has received widespread praise and a global rating of 4.5/5 in the Google PlayStore.

Remote Access and many other exciting features are available now with an Orca Core. Remote Access will be offered under a subscription package. However, all Core owners can access it free of charge during the initial beta phase. Orca gives a 30-day satisfaction guarantee and free express shipping.
